Hotline Miami: Much More Than Gore

''Recently I had the pleasure of experiencing a game that has tended to be one of them ‘love, hate’ games. Some people classed it as nothing but a repetitive gorefest that had little to offer bar a brief novelty. Others claimed it was yet another showcase of indie genius. Personally I find Hotline Miami to be one of this years more interesting games. It’s interesting in the same way films like The Wicker Man and Videodrome were interesting on the first viewing. It’s a strange game, with a strange story with a strange atmosphere…but it works.''
